Skin substitute products
Q4117 reports Hyalomatrix furnished for wound coverage, with units based on the product’s square-centimeter measure and a primary application procedure.
Q4117 identifies Hyalomatrix, a wound-covering matrix made with hyaluronic acid and a protective outer layer. Clinicians may use it as a temporary covering in the treatment of acute or chronic wounds, including burns and hard-to-heal ulcers. The product is furnished in settings where a clinician performs a skin-substitute application, such as an outpatient wound clinic or hospital department.
Report Q4117 only with the primary procedure, such as the applicable skin-substitute application service; it is an add-on code and is paid within that procedure’s global period. Select the product code that matches the material actually furnished, and report units using the product’s square-centimeter measure. Records should identify Hyalomatrix, the wound treated, the area and amount applied, and the related application procedure. CMS classifies Q4117 as technical-component-only; interpretation is represented by a separate code when separately reportable.
